Great photo, BK and KevinH. (And, of course, the dame.)  :D

Well, I'm heading home for some TV watching.

Until later!

I'm finally home. I got a Metro train right away on the Red Line. Unfortunately there was a 17 minute wait for the Yellow Line train once I got to the transfer point.  Luckily, I'm off tomorrow.

Thanks so much, BK, for inviting me to join you and Sandy!  What a delightful person she is!  And so nice to treat for dinner.

Yes, BK is in the upscale area of Chevy Chase, which is on the DC/Maryland border.  It's a great location.

DR Cillaliz did you watch last night's premiere of Dancing with the Stars?

I was very impressed. Although I thought that DL Hughley (sp?) was horrendous.

My favorites were Val and Zendaya (thought she was exceptional). And Derek and Kellie Pickler. I also thought that the football player and Karina have a lot of potential.

Haven't been watching.  Mom did  She said she thought they were all lousy.  gotta love mom

I'm afraid my dinner had a lot more calories than BK's 320-calorie dinner, but it was delicious!  They didn't really have anything vegetarian on the menu, but made up a pasta and veggie dish that was really great.

OZ THE GREAT AND POWERFUL had me hooked from the wonderful opening credits. I really liked the film and its design. It does a great job of catching the Oz mythology from the 1939 film, including the concept of people from Kansas showing up in different but similar characters in Oz, and the musical number sounds like something Arlen and Harburg wrote for the original film. I especially liked the fact that the film, unlike the 1939 movie, dpesn't end with Oz waking up back in Kansas and it's all being a dream. Curiously, the film begins in 1905, five years after the first Oz book was published. I have a theory on that.

I liked the film's gothic quality - why couldn't someone do BABES IN TOYLAND this spookily? - and I thought Danny Elfman's score worked nicely. Halfway through theend credits, the music moves into a pop mode for a Mariah Carey piece of garbage that completely takes you out of the mood the film establishes. What ass decided that?

I had a great time with my beloved goddaughter Charlotte, to whom I gave a copy of Jack Finney's TIME AND AGAIN this afternoon, and I learned all about her auditions this week.


Thanks for your review.  I've been thinking about going and wondered if it was good

I have had a few very stressful days which peaked today with very hotly contested hearing....the funny thing is the prosecutor agreed with me, but the judge didn't agree with either of us.  It wasn't pleasant and I took the brunt of it.  I have big shoulders and have been through this sort of hearing many times, but it's just so frustrating. It was a hearing in connection with a criminal case.  The good news is, I'm getting out of criminal cases.  I'm not announcing it in any grand way, just not taking any new ones at least for the near future.   I'm good at it, but I'm so tired of it and the negativity.  So I'm going to just focus on immigration.   It's a much more civil practice

Every time I go to type DC I type CD.  Muscle memory, I suppose.

It's funny to watch the coverage and see so many people I know, from the prosecutor to the talking heads.

I do remember the trials I had against Juan.  He wasn't always that confrontational, but close
